Description

Selling my 535d Touring - bought it approx 2 years ago when I had just suffered a bad knee injury and couldn't drive a manual car anymore. It's been a brilliant car to drive and I've enjoyed owning it but selling on for 2 main reasons.
1 - my annual mileage is very low and most of it is town driving which is a waste of this vehicles potential
2 - I miss driving a manual car

Spec
- remapped to 340bhp with start-stop, EGR and swirl flaps coded out (DPF still present so no MOT emissions issues, also had no issues with clogging with lots of short drives and an 80 mile round trip every couple of weeks)
- black leather interior in good condition, front seats are heated and part-electric adjustment, can be adjusted in lots of ways which makes it a very comfortable car to drive
- head-up display which displays speed all the time and next turn when using the built-in nav
- panoramic roof
- detachable towbar
- built-in sat nav (although maps are a few years out of date, can be updated quite cheaply)

When I bought the car it had covered ~164000 miles with the engine having been rebuilt around 160000 by the previous keeper - invoice for the short block is in the photos. Photos of some of the service history / work completed are also above - message me if you want more. Since buying it I have had oil changes done either by my local garage or myself at roughly 8000 miles intervals (did the most recent just a couple of days ago) and have had the following extra maintenance completed.

- new battery - fitted myself and coded in October 2024
- intercooler pipes - fitted myself January 2025
- coolant hose and tank - fitted by local garage October 2025
- gearbox service - local garage March 2026
- rocker cover replacement including injector seals - local garage October 2026.

MOT until March 2027, no advisories on last MOT.

Car is currently on 19" summer wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tyres (fitted July/August 2025), also have a set of 17" winter wheels with Goodyear UltraGrip Performance which are included in full asking price.

The engine work makes it hard to price against other vehicles but I have tried to be realistic with price based on what is available across the various platforms. Open to negotiation, also open to selling the car with only 1 set of wheels and selling the other set on separately.
